Hello everyone! If you are looking for the Blog Candy post, please go down several posts.
It sure feels frosty here in New Jersey today! We are expecting an inch of snow this afternoon. I know it's not much, but it might be a white Christmas after all!
Isn't he cute? The snowman is from the Stampin' Up! Snow Buddies set, and I drew in the horizon line with a black SU marker. The accessories he wears were colored with SU markers, as well. The ground is covered with sparkly "snow" (Martha Stewart glitter), as is one side of his face and body. The wreath surrounding him was assembled using a Martha punch called Rose Leaf. It's a new toy and I love it! Also new to me: the Maraschino twine from The Twinery. I picked up two of their sample packs on Cyber Monday at a discount.

I won an award on 12/11/10 at The Paper Players Challenge 27 for this card, Inspired by a Stack of Gifts.
And for my Peace Wreath card I was named Colour Queen Courtier on 12/13/10.
Thank you, design teams, for choosing my cards - I am very grateful.
I have one other big announcement but I cannot give you the details yet. I'm bursting at the seams with excitement about it, though!
There's another I need to post after this one, so I'll see you soon. Thanks for joining me today!

Oh, I 'm jealous...don't think I've even seen that rose leaf punch. You made a wonderful wreath with it. And, you know that snowman melts my heart...just a darling card, Colleen.
So festive and fun! Love the little snowman and all of the sparkly accents! The houndstooth paper is the perfect accent to your design, too. Love it! Thanks for playing with The Paper Players this week! :)
